Mini-rant!

If you want to try to buy an item from me when I'm not explicitly selling them, consider the following things:

1) Are you AIMing me to ask this? If so, and if not a close friend, consider your a** to be grass.

2) Are you AIMing me the second I come away from idle to ask if I'm selling? Even friends will probably get a >| face from me.

3) Are you offering less than 10% of what they're going for in the marketplace? Even if I do not like the item in question, I do not appreciate acquaintences attempting to play me for a sap.

4) "But that's how much they're going for in the exchange" does not mean anything to me. If you want to pay less than 10% of the marketplace price for the item in question and the exchange supposedly sells them for that price, why aren't you in the exchange right now snapping up these items?. Why must you IM me to beg me to sell you these things for such ridiculously low prices? Contrary to popular belief, I was NOT born yesterday.

In conclusion: Do not abuse the friendly nature of our relationship, because if it persists, I will break off all diplomatic relations shortly before razing your villages with armored flamethrowers.
